What's going on with Mika and Joe and Trump?

Mika seemed to be very defensive in her body language this morning, it seemed to me? She was caught on camera yesterday going into the Trump Tower, supposedly to meet with Ivanka Trump? Maybe? Maybe not? She's got some type of deal going on, it appears?

Joe has been giving advice to Trump for a long time. He thinks of himself as some type of senior adviser who is going to be a major player in the evolution of the Republican Party. Or so it seems?

Both of them, together, did more to promote Donald Trump than anyone in the media and now they deny it. They are working behind the scenes to help the Donald with his media presentations and portrayals.

In my opinion, neither of them is to be trusted.

Mika thinks of herself as a budding entrepreneur. And she is willing to sacrifice, whatever principles she may have once had, to accumulate more wealth and name recognition for herself.

She's probably ruined her relationship with her two daughters and it will take years to rebuild that relationship. Fool.

CNN replaced MSNBC a while back though CNN drives us nuts too. We usually watch PBS news hour but lately we haven't watched any of it. I can't stomach all of it quite yet.
